章 118: Blockheads

On the first day of class in Winter High, all students were required to gather in the school's gymnasium for the flag ceremony and discuss important things for the year for both students and teachers. Each class and year lined up properly, and girls and boys were separated. 

"Cozie, is it true?" 

Cosette looked back when Fay tapped her shoulder. The latter leaned forward slightly, whispering in Cosette's ear.

"That guy." Fay pointed to the line where Maxen stood. "That guy is Maxen? Maxen Cloven?"

"Uh, yes..." she nodded, glancing at Fay and then at Maxen standing behind the line. She couldn't blame her classmates for questioning her, since she had the same reaction when she saw Maxen's glow up. But that wasn't all. Cosette noticed that other students — especially girls — would either turn their heads whenever Maxen walk past them.
